Research in real-time dependable systems and risk assessment
My goal is to advance techniques, tools, and computing platforms that enable the development of provably safe systems in a time- and cost-efficient way, with applications in:
- Automotive and aerospace embedded systems: automated synthesis of E/E architecture (design-space exploration, machine learning) & timing and dependability verification
- Risk assessment: quantify risks using probabilistic models derived from historical data
Here is a list of my publications (available for download) and slides from recent talks. You can find here a short biography and a list of (academic) professional activities.
